TILTON twin cerametallic users i need you info & experience here.
I just had mine installed because the tilton carbon couldn't hold up , so I'll let you know in the next few days how it holds and feels, as Larry from tilton told me this clutch should hold alot better.

The guy is very nice, and will help you. Takes his time to explain things,
.I normally get my Tilton parts from Titan.
But there is also a very nice dealer in Texas, Taylor Engineering. About the best customer service I ever had any where
. They are also a huge Tilton dealer, just like Titan.
We installed one recently on a customers car and the input shaft of the tranny ate the teeth on the hubs of the discs. This is with the newest upgrade from Tilton on the discs which have different hubs (in height). Input shaft was ok and installed a new Exedy twin ceramatallic unit and all has been well.
This is due to the solid hub nature of the tilton discs and the fact the evo is setup without a pilot shaft bearing. Tilton told me when I talked to them they now have instructions to install a dowel in the input shaft of the transmission as well as the bearing to install in the flywheel.
If you already have this clutch installed without the pilot shaft bearing and are running a stock ecu, the customer reported back that he was having excessive PO300 codes after the install especially in 5th gear on the highway at 70 to 80 mph. Now with the Exedy this is all gone.
Hope this helps.

to op. the specs of tilton and qm is pretty much identical ,than y did u change ur mind from qm to tilton .trust me i orderd quarter master clutch after seing ur old qm thread .ny waz gud luck wid ur buy .
from what i am gathering between the QM and tilton is they weigh the same, use the same size disks, but the QM is 650trq rated and the TILTON is 740trq rated. and only is 300 more bucks.
and for anyone else who wants to know
exedy twin weight = 32lbs ''pull type''
exedy tripple weight = 34lbs ''pull type''
i have probably all the specs and info i need and are looking for. my mind is pretty much made up on what im doing but i still need to make one phone call to walker before i do anything.

I've been running a Tilton twin C/M for about 12,000 miles and it is still holding strong. I don't launch my car, so I don't know how long it would hold up with a lot of drag racing. I daily drove the car with the Tilton for a while, but now I work from home so I mostly just drive it for fun.
Aggressive Driving:
The Tilton is amazing for aggressive driving. Super fast shifts, much better than any other clutches I've driven (ACT, Exedy Twin, Stock). I also really like the push-type engagement; it makes the clutch much easier to modulate. Taking off from a stop quickly is very easy, doing anything else is tough.
Around town:
The clutch is a bit tough to slip for an easy take-off. I've gotten used to it and can do it, but it's not the easiest thing to do. Once under way, this clutch does not bother me much at anything under 45 mph, so it's great around town. It does make a lot of noise at idle and during decel, but not so much that it's a major problem.
Highway:
I don't know if this is a problem for everyone or if I just need my trans rebuilt, but the resonant vibrations from this clutch at ~70-75 mph and above are terrible. It's fairly loud (louder than my exhaust at cruise) and can make your feet fall asleep. The other thing about my car that may exacerbate this issue is I have a stroker without balance shafts. On a 2.0 liter it may not be as bad. I'm actually considering switching up to something a little more tame as I'll probably be daily driving it again next year. I guess I'm starting to get too old to drive a race car every day.
